Everything You wanted to know about FIREWALLS..!!
2007-11-20 10:32:00
A firewall is basically something that protects the network from the Internet. It is derived from the concept of firewalls used in vehicles which is a barrier made of fire resistant material protecting the vehicle in case of fire. Anyway a firewall is best described as a software or hardware or both Hardware and Software packet filter that allows only selected packets to pass through from the Internet to your private internal network. A firewall is a system or a group of systems which guard a trusted network( The Internal Private Network from the untrusted network (the Internet.) To understand how a firewall works, firstly we need to understand how exactly data is transferred on the Internet.The TCPIP suite is responsible for successful transfer of data across a network both the Internet and the Intranet. The TCPIP suite is a collection of protocols which are inter-related and interdependent and act as a set of rules according to which data is transferred across the network. A pro...

No incoming data for WOW, got three firewalls running

Bypass restrictive firewalls and filtering web proxys

So once you've set up the Your Freedom client (and the configuration wizard congratulates you that now all is fine), be sure you read how to use OpenVPN mode, because it will magically solve most if not all of your problems, and you don't have to reconfigure any applications.  Bypass- restrictive firewalls and filtering web proxys Are you trapped behind a firewall or a filtering web proxy and cannot access some or many web pages or use an application you would like to use or play a game you would like to play? Is your Internet connection being censored and you would like to stick censorship where the sun doesn't shine? Would you prefer to stay anonymous, that your IP address is not logged with every access to someone's web p...
More Information on Firewalls
2007-09-07 04:54:00
It seems nowadays if you are not online, you don?t exist. It really does not matter what type of company you run, you should have an online presence to let your prospects and clients know about your company and services. When you decide to take the leap onto the Internet there are some precautions you should take. I have friends who say all the time, I really have nothing to hide or worry about. This may be true, but malicious users like to deface websites.Which can ruin you and your businesses reputation.This is a paper about firewalls protecting your company from outside threats and unauthorized access.A firewall is a great start. Firewalls can be both hardware and software based. There are many different firewall vendors some of the bigger names are Cisco, Symantec, and Checkpoint. The difficult part is configuring the firewall. This is where many intruders bypass security, because the firewall is poorly configured.I would like to mention that there are many Open Source programs ...
tcptraceroute, A way to make traceroutes with firewalls in the middle of th
2007-09-03 03:19:00
Introduction Today I want to show you a real good network administration tool, if you do network administration, you should use ping and traceroute to check whenever a host is alive or not. Maybe the steps of testing is first ping the server, and if there is no response, you try with traceroute to see where in the route an interruption exists. Traceroute works sending ICMP packets to all the routers in the way to the destination host, but these days more and more routers and server have the ICMP packets filtered, so here is where tcptraceroute comes to save the day. As you may guess from its name tcptraceroute is like traceroute but sends tcp packets instead of ICMP packets thus avoiding the filtering of the packets in the route. Installation Debian / Ubuntu apt-get install tcptraceroute Fedora / Centos Be sure to have Dag Wieers repository enabled and then run: yum install tcptraceroute Usage tcptraceroute [-nNFSAE] [ -i interface ] [ -f first ttl ] [ -l length ] [ -q number of qu...

Hide your firewalls! Adobe's CS3 may try to disable them
2007-05-19 17:44:00
There are a lot of users out there who don't like to use the firewall included with OS X for various reasons. It does, however, provide at least a decent amount of protection, especially for those who aren't behind another, perhaps a hardware firewall. The firewall also doesn't do much if you think you have it on, and it gets disabled thanks to some software that hasn't been tested for quite

Bypass workplace firewalls: SSH tunneling for dummies
2007-05-08 15:04:00
Franck from Franck's Place posted an excellent how-to some time ago on his blog. Specifically, he provides instructions on how to surf freely at work an bypass idiotic web surfing restrictions. I have quoted Franck's introduction, but will leave you to click the link to view the post in its entirety on Franck's blog.SSH tunneling for dummies"More and more, litigation and regulation is forcing companies to restrict what you can do on an office computer. For some people it's now easier to work from home than the office because of those constraints. The irony is that most people also have handheld devices with none of those constraints anyway. And even without any of those, it's very easy to bypass most protection systems.For example, here is a way to bypass a corporate firewall that prevents you to access certain websites -- not that you should or want to do it. If you follow those steps, you do it at your own risk! But here it is, for educational purposes :)"SSH tunneling for ...
Network Access Control and Check Point Firewalls
2007-03-22 03:42:00
March 8, 2007NAC Hits The (Check Point) FirewallBy Sean Michael Kerner The firewall is one of the most widely deployed pieces of network security infrastructure. Yet for some reason it hasn't benefited much from network access control (NAC), one of the most hyped pieces of network security infrastructure.That's about to change, thanks to Check Point Technologies, one of the pioneers of the firewall.Next week, Check Point is officially announcing the latest revision to its widely deployed VPN 1 firewall technology. The company said version R65 includes performance enhancements that speed packet inspection throughput, as well as adding additional management features.NAC is also a key part of the new release."The most successful security product ever is likely the firewall and so far it's not involved in NAC," Bill Jensen, product marketing manager at Check Point, told internetnews.com. "We want to change that with R65."NAC is a widely used term that was first coined by Cisco as par...

Hardware Versus Software Firewalls
2007-02-23 06:34:03
According to estimates, an unprotected Windows computer system connected to the Internet could be compromised within twelve minutes. In light of this, the need for computer security has expanded in the last few years. Today, it is just as necessary for home users to secure personal computers as it is for businesses to secure office computers. In order to gain security benefits like those many businesses possess, home network security often utilizes the same models. The difference, however, has been that most home users do not have the financial resources for top of the line security equipment. This has led many home users to begin using security tools such as freeware firewalls and over-the-counter hardware firewall solutions. This raises a question. How do the freeware firewalls compare to expensive, all-in-one firewall solutions such as the Cisco PIX? The goal for this project, then, is to compare the Cisco PIX with two freeware firewalls.

Virtual Firewalls (and other network devices)?
2007-01-27 21:53:02
There’s a very interesting article over at Replicate Technologies (Which I found via the VMTN Blog)on using Virtual Machines to replace your network devices… (Firewalls, VPN Concentrators, Load Balancers, Email Filters, etc) and I think it makes a lot of sense… Why buy a new box to handle your email filtering when you can hop over to the Virtual Appliance Marketplace and download a system to do it for you… Why stick a firewall in front of a machine when you could drop a VM Firewall on it and use some fancy networking-fu to firewall the box… These eliminates the need for additional devices clogging up your data center… and for a small business let’s you have maybe two servers instead of servers and additional devices… Here’s an example of it’s use… I know of a company (15-20 employees) with a Windows 2000 Small Business Server… SBS is the worst design ever… Exchange on your DC, which means your DC is on the...
Online Safety - Firewalls
2006-12-27 04:23:02
This is just a quick reminder that in view of the present holidays, when you make purchases online you MUST protect yourself as much as possible. Using a FireWall and anti-virus programs on your computer can help to prevent unauthorised access to information on your computer (reference: Antivirus Programs). Also ensure that you have spam suppressers installed and anti-adware software, both of which can contain dangerous viruses and codes.It is also best to use payment processors instead of sending your Credit Card information over the internet everytime you make a transaction (reference: Online Payment Processors). This helps you to keep your number seucure and less likely to be hacked.By all means, clear your browser cookies before you close your browser. In addition, clear your temporary internet files folder regulary. You can never be too careful.
Skype certifies McAfee virus scan and firewalls
2006-08-06 18:48:38
Skype and McAfee inked an interesting deal lately. McAfee Security Suite 2006, McAfee VirusScan 2006 and McAfee Personal Firewall 2006 are now optimized for Skype VoIP calling application. “The two software products do not directly link up, a Skype representative said,” adds CNet. “However, Skype conducted tests to the effectiveness of McAfee’s protection of the desktop while its voice over Internet Protocol software was is use. For example, a McAfee product can scan files before they are transferred during a call.” Such a move change nothing to Skype’s opacity to network administrator. But does give enough security level to Skype to break deeper into the small and medium business market. Which Skype is eager to do.
